It's my understanding that Bowers is a major throughway for emergency vehicles to get across. Especially the fire trucks who have to turn right down Palisade and then need to cut over. I've witnessed multiple accidents on this intersection, but not sure if it's enough to stop the flow of traffic.
We will conduct a preliminary traffic assessment to determine what type of traffic control is warranted at this intersection. The preliminary assessment will also help identify if a more in-depth study is required. Please allow 3 to 4 weeks for the preliminary study to be completed.
